Pricing and Analytics Manager

The Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) Manager at Sechan Electronics, Inc. serves as a strategic financial leader for the business. This leader will play a vital role in establishing new financial reporting by partnering closely with Finance, Program Management, Business Development, Engineering, and Operations. You will leverage your expertise to build the financial infrastructure, including models, governance, and dashboards that leadership relies on to make resource allocation and investment decisions.

This is not a reporting role - this is a building job. You will not inherit a mature, streamlined process. You will create it alongside a team that moves with velocity. FP&A reporting will include a financial business plan, along with the development of short-term reporting published on a standard cadence. The leader will develop metrics and KPIs to ensure effective implementation while identifying ways to continually improve the overall financial performance of the business.

In this business‑critical role, the challenges you will encounter are unpredictable, and you will be expected to take ownership of delivering results at both the business and program levels. Success in this position comes from an open, dynamic mindset, strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and a collaborative approach to partnering with cross‑functional teams to drive impactful financial decisions.

You will be a trusted advisor and financial steward to the Executive Leadership Team (ELT), directly shaping the future of a mission‑critical, Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) business focused on national defense, building the faultless electronic systems our customers depend on for their most critical applications. This role sits at the intersection of complex defense contracting (DCAA), high‑mix, low‑volume electronics manufacturing, and Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) capital management.

You are a leader who thrives in an employee‑owned business culture where financial performance directly impacts employee retirement wealth. You will have direct access to the business, program, and operational leadership, with no layers of middle management between you and the decision‑makers.
